Finding new things to do with my son is always at the top of my list. You have to keep it interesting. We went to a storytime in the Park today at Wentz Run Park and then off to the airport! Yes, the airport. We visited a local airport, Wings Field in Blue Bell, PA. Mesmerizing....is all I can say. We watched Penn Star (the U of P medical transport helicopter) gear up to take off and then go up and fly away. Ace was just in awe! It was sooo cool. We also watched some planes take off and land. It is really neat to watch the small planes with the propellers. Ace kept saying "up, up, up!!!) It made me feel so good to watch the excitement he was feeling! Try to find a local airport and just go watch. It is free, fun, and exciting! :)

To top it all off, then we went to Maple Acres Farm. It is very local to us. They have amazing heirloom tomatoes, which Ace loves to pick out himself. Only problem, he picks them and bites right into them if I do not catch him fast enough! Too funny!!! His favorite are the Brandywine Yellow Tomatoes....again, very yummy! Just visit your local farms, see the produce, visit animals if there are any, and embrace the way it used to be. Fun does not have to mean commercial, good old fashioned things can be fun and free!
